Does anyone know how to close the browse window without prompting the user?

I am using window.close(); but I am prompted each time "This windows is attempting to close the browser" message or something.

Since I am using this as a tool on my local machine, I don't need it to work on all browsers. I don't even need it to work on anyone else's machine. Even if it just works on my home machine I don't care - since it's only for a tool.

Are their settings in IE that allow this? Does FireFox allow this? (Maybe I can run my tool through FireFox instead of netscape)

Anyone have ideas?

Hey John, try this instead of the regular close. It's a trick that will work until they figure out the hole in IE.

function hp_tricky_win_close()
{
    window.opener = top;
    window.close();
};
